I think the Holy Roman Empire has a stronger position in this game than their opponents generally give them credit for. Spullla keeps bringing up Whosit as a main contender, but I think the train is about to leave the station for Rome. The HRE, however, can colonize a nice chunk of Centralia and have the economy to do so.
